| - I needed to add this business to this website for 2 reasons: 1, it's awesome and authentical.
2: My friend believes restomontreal.ca is a better restaurant review website than Yelp. So as I prefer Yelp and wanted to proove him wrong, I needed to add that business.
One of the issue I got with Japanese cuisine in Montreal it's that it's mostly marginalize in Sushi and Crazy Chef mumbling funny stuff and doing a flame while cooking your shrimps. I went to 2 great Japanese restaurant in my life and one of them is Mikado and the other one is Hanashima.
Mikado would be more in the Modern New Japanese cuisine style with some really talented chef and Hanashima would be more into the Traditional Japanese Cuisine. Now, I'm not an expert, but my friend is really into Japanese stuff and knows more about it. From what I understand, Traditional Japanese cuisine focuses on the taste and quality of the food.
The menu is quite simple. The restaurant is welcoming and it kind of feel like a bar with the exception that it's japanese fondue restaurant!
You have 3 choices of broth. Chicken, Neutral (algae) and Spicy (which I was told is really spicy). Then you choose your sides. Vegetarian will be happy to find some great vegetable and meat lover will be happy to find their meat too. It's one of the most healthy meal you can have: Boiled in a great broth, with sides of rice and soya sauce and peanut sauce, this meal is so simple, yet so good and CHEAP, that it's worth a 5Stars.
Alcool + Shrimps + Meat plates and Veggie plates, + Chicken Broth with Tip cost me 40-45$. Plan at least 1-2 hours for your meal.
